I have entered some 3D sites using my VR headset. These sites use the WebXR api specified here: https://www.w3.org/TR/webxr/
WebXR is an API you can access via websites. When you put on your headset and enter a webxr website the experience becomes immersive.
But what if I could enter these websites with my nostr pubkey? What if I could enter these sites and pay sats and receive sats?
I already also posted another post where I imagined having getalby browser and entering these websites. That post is here: #228749
Nostr 3 D
But here I want to talk to the nostr community.
Why does nostr only have to be 2d? We live in a 3 d world. More and more people have VR headsets.
So if I’m writing 2d text and putting it on a website (like Habla.news, like Nostr) why can’t I be in a 3 d environment? Wouldn’t that be awesome?
I don’t yet know a lot about the technical side of nostr with the BIPS and stuff.
Tools
I have seen that tools like Unity to build 3d experiences in c# also support webxr. So it should be possible to create a 3 d experience and deploy it on a website by using Unity!
So here are my questions:
What is needed to use my nostr pubkey and nsec on a WebXR enabled website?
Is it difficult to create a javascript enabled webxr website where I just can enter with my nostr nsec and use my nostr?
And what is needed so I only can type a text on a 3D board in that website with my pubkey?
I imagine I can do everything on nostr in that immersive environment.
That is the first test I would want to do.
And then of course I’m in a 3d environment. Did not use any password, email and username. So appart from only writing text can I zap some sats to another user?
This is test 2. In test 2, two nostr pubkeys would enter and they should be able to zap sats.
It could be just a 3 d object in VR you interact with. By pressing a 3 d object and that means you zap some sats. A second nostr account could see my 3 d post and zap some sats in there.
I will keep looking for more demo sites built on WebXR. And maybe even create a test environment myself.
Let me know your thoughts.
Are we only able to use nostr in 2 D or also in 3 D VR?
Finally: webXR also works in AR. Augmented Reality! You don’t have to enter an immersive VR world. You could put some 3 d objects on top of our own world and create a magic experience.
You could put a nostr post right on a main square in a city!!!!
Who is going to create that first nostr AR post???
